Prime Minister Narendra Modi will chair a meeting with chief ministers on Thursday to discuss the Covid-19 situation in the country, along with reviewing the ongoing vaccination drive. The daily Covid-19 count in India breached the 1.25 lakh-mark on Wednesday, with Maharashtra alone reporting 59,907 new cases. This is by far the highest daily case count for India ever since the pandemic began last year.
